Secret 13 - Once Upon a Time (warning for rape)
[Picture is Queen Regina, as portrayed by Lana Parrilla, from the TV series "Once Upon a Time". She is a woman with light skin and dark hair in layers, reaching her shoulders. She is wearing a dark suit jacket and holding up a red apple in front of her face. She is looking thoughtfully at the apple.]
Even as a card carrying Evil Regal, I'm finding it increasingly difficult to sympathize with Regina in the Fairy Tale Land or Storybrooke.
It's becoming clear to me, through her actions and history, that the story Kitsis and Co. are trying to tell about her - Regina as a poor little girl deserving of redemption and blameless for all the shit she's done and a great mother on top of that - is not the one that's actually coming through. Her most recent admission, that she regrets nothing she's done to date, horrified me. I feel like I've wasted my fandom self on a horrible person who killed thousands of innocent people, including her father, raped a man for 28 years, tried to convince her son that he was crazy, and countless other things, because an 8 year old let slip a secret!
She's not even a good mother. She loves Henry but her love for him and dependence on him is unhealthy, especially for Henry. She's crazy. Literally. There's no other explanation I can come up with. I can't believe it's taken me this long to see it.
